Phone Verification

Setup

Read your credentials from ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json:

export GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json'))['api_key'])")
export GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json')).get('api_base','https://api.gooseworks.ai'))")

If ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json does not exist, tell the user to run: npx gooseworks login

All endpoints use Bearer auth: -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY"

Verify phone numbers by sending SMS one-time verification codes via Didit.

Quick Start

# Send verification code via SMS
curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"didit","path":"/v3/phone/send","body":{"phone_number":"[phone]"}}'

# Verify the code user provides
curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"didit","path":"/v3/phone/check","body":{"phone_number":"[phone]","code":"123456"}}'

Workflow

1. Send Verification Code

curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"didit","path":"/v3/phone/send"}'
  -d '{"phone_number": "[phone]"}'

Request format:

• Phone must be in E.164 format (e.g., [phone])
• Include country code with + prefix

Response:

{
  "success": true,
  "message": "Verification code sent"
}

2. Verify Code

When the user provides the code they received:

curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"didit","path":"/v3/phone/check"}'
  -d '{"phone_number": "[phone]", "code": "123456"}'

Response (success):

{
  "success": true,
  "verified": true
}

Phone Number Format

Always use E.164 format:

• US: [phone]
• UK: [phone]
• Germany: [phone]

Use Cases

• User signup: Verify phone before creating account
• SMS 2FA: Add phone-based second factor authentication
• Account recovery: Verify ownership via SMS
• Delivery confirmation: Confirm contact number for orders

Integration Example (TypeScript)

import Orthogonal from "@orth/sdk";

const orthogonal = new Orthogonal({

});

// Send verification code via SMS
const sendResult = await orthogonal.run({
  api: "didit",
  path: "/v3/phone/send",
  body: { phone_number: "[phone]" }
});

// Verify the code
const verifyResult = await orthogonal.run({
  api: "didit",
  path: "/v3/phone/check",
  body: { 
    phone_number: "[phone]",
    code: "123456"
  }
});

if (verifyResult.data.verified) {
  console.log("Phone verified!");
}
